Originally born in Queens, Dani lives on Long Island with her husband and daughter and loves all things whimsical and enchanting. 

Her family has been traveling to the charming sea side town of Rockport, Massachusetts for generations. From her grandparents to now a child of her own, they have been visiting this magical town just minutes away from Salem. The charm, history and folklore has been the inspiration that captivated her for decades.

Dani has written a collection of individual picture books about fun loving witches who live in the same town and appear in each other's stories. 

She is a member of SCBWI and has attended several writing webinars. Dani is active on X, Instagram and Bluesky.  Most importantly, she belongs to two incredible critique groups to which she credits most of her writing growth.

5 Things to know.

1. Dani loves making fresh rustic white bread and granulating the ingredients for her herb butter by hand as she find it very relaxing.

2. While admittedly a slow reader, she enjoys taking the time to experience evey word the author puts to page. That, and she tends to fall asleep after a sentance or two.

3. Green is Dani's favorite color, but not all greens qualify. She prefers a good dark, earthy green like hunter or forest and feels olive and sage are always lovely as well.

4. Practical Magic, When Harry Meet Sally and What Dreams May Come are  her  favorite movies. 

5. She has been studying and teaching the Martial Arts for over 25 years.
